At about 2:22 a.m. on Friday, March 22, two people were seriously injured in a car accident in Jurupa Valley. The crash occurred on Highway 60 at Valley Way. Emergency responders extricated the victims from the wreckage and transported them to a local hospital to receive treatment for major trauma. The accident is under investigation.

“After a collision resulting in injuries, the victims may file personal injury claims against the negligent driver in order to receive compensation for recovery-related expenses,” explained California car accident attorney James Ballidis, “such as for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering.”

Throughout Riverside County, 11,417 people were killed or injured in traffic accidents in 2010, according to the California Office of Traffic Safety. Nighttime collisions—those occurring between 9 p.m. and 2:59 a.m.—accounted for 1,076 of the crashes that resulted in injury or death that year.

All of us at Allen, Flatt, Ballidis, and Leslie would like to wish a full recovery to the two people who were seriously injured in the car accident.
